In
Russia summer traditionallyis
the seasonfor radio expeditions.
So, the question about a field antenna stands before hundreds
radio amateurs.Certainly, it is impossible to give one answer
to this question. A design of an antenna for fields depends on
many factors. There are frequencies bands used by radio

expedition,
local factors for antenna installation, time and money and so
on.Igor, RV3DA, has developed universal wire
antenna. This one with ATU works well on all amateurs short-wave
ranges, including WARC. factors. There are frequencies bands used

The
antenna has a triangular shape, one of the ends of the triangular
is grounded.

Figure
1 shows the circuit of the antenna. A good grounding
is necessary for successful work of the antenna. However, the
antenna provides good work without good grounding also.

The
antenna was tested by team of collective radio station RK3DZD
in field conditions.
